Foraging behavior, nesting dispersion, and developmental strategies of sampled charadriiform taxa.

Extinct species are denoted by a "†". *Ethological and developmental attributes of Mancallinae and Halcyornis toliapicus are largely unknown because these extinct taxa are known only from fossils. Taxa CT scanned for this study are denoted by a "+". Abbreviations: APD, aerial plunge diver; ASS, aerial surface skimmer; C, colonial; G, generalist; FWPD, flightless wing-propelled diver; P, precocial; S, solitary; SP, semi-precocial; TAF, terrestrial aerial forager; TGF, terrestrial ground-forager; WPD, wing-propelled diver.
